Blue Checkered Screen after using the Recovery Disks

I have a Compaq Presario SR2034NX XP Media Center computer. I followed the instructions and installed all the recovery disks. The screen then said to remove all disks and that it's going to reboot several times to finish the installation. During this process I got a blue checkered screen. I'm not sure what to do at this point. I took a picture of what the screen looks like and I'm enclosing a link to the picture here.

Thank you for your help and time!

I run into the same problem with fresh installation of W7 Pro on T530 with 1TB samsung disk.
This solution worked for me:
    Running check for updates will trigger this error message:
“Windows Update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running. You may need to restart your computer.”  
Solution:
1.    Go to Administrative Tools/Services, and stop the Windows Update service.
2.    Then go to the folder c: /Windows/SoftwareDistribution and delete all of the files and folders.
3.    Then go back to Services and restart the Windows Update service which will recreate all of those folders again.
4.    Then manually run the Update Service and everything should work.

  • Satellite L500-19X - Can't use the recovery disk

    Well I got this laptop two days ago and used it once after installing fire fox and my mobile broadband drvier's and going back home to boot up and find it was going to happen,
    I had tried safe mode (all three) and repair and all I got was a black screen with the cursor up where there should have been a language screen (I used the recovery disk that came along with the laptop) so anyway after finding out I wasnt going to be able to repair it I tried to install but of course that didn't work either so I put my XP 64 bit OS on and worked perfectly fine, then I upgraded (using my own upgrade windows 7) and that works fine no problems, so I tried again with the original windows 7 that came pre-installed on the laptop's hard drive and all went find untill it starts installing driver's or updates (I'm not 100% sure on this but it is at and/or after the face recognition installation,
    Then it shuts it's self down and boots back up to automatically restart and asking me if I want to repair due to a bad start-up so I do the repair boots back up and still says I need to repair and finds nothing wrong and carrys on in that circle.
    Now I have been told that it could be the register or it is a graphics problem, I myself am getting pretty fed up of having to install/reinstall/format this laptop.
    So if there is anyone who know's what is wrong or what to do or even if it needs to be sent back to be fixed that will be very helpful.
    I thank anyone in advance.
    Happy new year :)

    Hi
    Well, I think its really hard to say what the reason is. Maybe the recovery disk is scratchy or the files corrupt there.
    At the moment I cant imagine that its a hardware problem because other Windows disk working properly.
    In your case I would try to install Windows 7 from a Microsoft disk and then see what happens. If it works properly and you can install all drivers & tools you should order a new recovery disk from Toshiba directly.
    Bye

  • Satellite A300-1mz Can I use the recovery disks after a HDD upgrade?

    I'm upgrading the hard drive of my *toshiba a300-1mz*, but I'd be sure that I can use the *recovery disks* maked at the first boots for the s.o. (vista)
    I expect your support...
    thank you very much...

    > how can I be sure that the disk is properly recognized before I buy it???
    What do you mean exactly? Did you mean the HDD???
    The A300 supports and 2.5 SATA HDD and all 2.5 HDD should be recognized properly since the SATA HDD controller hasnt any limitations.

    Hi,
    Shutdown the notebook.  Tap away at f11 as you start to access Recovery Manager which you can then use to reinstall the Operating System.

    The Toshiba recovery disk requires the internal CD/DVD drive.  There isn't any workaround for that.
    Sorry.

  • GT60 - Can I break RAID0 and then use the Recovery disks?

    Is it possible to break the RAID0 and then use the recovery disks from MSI Burn Recovery or a Windows Home Premium Disk with the code from the sticker on my laptop,  to install back to factory settings without the RAID0? Just want to make sure before I do something drastic. Thank you.

    you can always make an system image of your current windows on an external drive and then experiment with it and if anything breaks, just change bios settings to older ones and recover your older system, everything will be intact like nothing ever happened.

  • Equium A210-1C4: Winload.exe problem after using product recovery disk

    Hi There
    I Could really do with some help here. I have a Toshiba Equium A210-1C4 Laptop. Partitioned drive with Vista home premium service pack 4.0.
    Last night I used the product recovery disk supllied with the laptop to try and restore it back to its factory settings.
    and the end of the process I'm left with a cmd prompt box with X:\windows\system32\cmd.exe in the blue top bit stating:
    Error: imageX could not apply vista F:\05993xsp.swm Index 2 from ODD to C:\!
    Press any key to continue. That box dissappears then another one with Administrator: X:\windows\system32\cmd.exe in the blue top bit stating:
    waiting for ODD to become available...
    ODD Drive F: ready.
    check for medium in drive F:...
    Failed to initialise the raid class.
    No RAID - continue normally...
    X:\windows\system32>
    Now whenever the laptop tries to restart it just comes up with the error message:
    WINDOWS FAILED TO START. A RECENT HARDWARE OR SOFTWARE CHANGE MIGHT BE THE
    CAUSE
    FILE: \WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\WINLOAD.EXE
    STATUS: 0XC000000E
    INFO: THE SELECTED ENTRY COULD NOT BE LOADED BECAUSE THE APPLICATION
    IS MISSING OR CORRUPT
    Below I then have the option to esc or continue both with the same outcome of system trying to restart.
    The recovery disk has no repair option on it.
    please help, I haven't a clue.
    thanks

    Hi
    It looks like something went wrong during the Recovery procedure.
    Did you try to recover the notebook once again?
    If not you should definitely try this!
    You are right; the recovery disk hasnt a option for repair because the recovery disk is not the same like a MS Vista disk. The Recovery disk contains the image files (its a package) and the files contains the Vista, Toshiba drivers, tools and additional software.
    Therefore if something went wring during the recovery procedure, you will be not able to repair the OS installation but you have to run it again.

  • Satellite P500 - Restart loop after using Toshiba recovery disk

    Hi,
    I have got a problem recovering SATELLITE P500. I had made the recovery disks. It boots ok from the recovery disk and formats the hard drive and copies the disks to the hard drive. It then starts windows setup and reboots.
    Then it goes to a loop
    1) Start up and says "Setup is preparing your computer for first use"
    2) Toshiba banner saying please wait... Finnishing installation may take several minutes. Pleae do not interupt or shutdown the computer!
    3) Windows logo
    4) Shutting down...
    5) restarts and goes to 1)
    It would be great if some one could help me with this.
    Many thanks,
    Softari

    Hello
    I have noticed the same on my Satellite P500 but I must say its not an issue, its absolutely normal. The notebook will restart several times (10 times or more) to finish the installation.
    You must know that a lot of drivers/tools will be installed and certain restart must be done to configure everything properly.
    So dont interrupt the recovery installation, just wait a little bit longer and drink a coffee. Everything happens automatically and your notebook will be reinstalled with factory settings. :)

  • Equium A210 171 What info do i need before i use the recovery disk?

    Hi,
    I have 1 recovery disk that came with my equium, haven't used it before.
    On the back of the recovery disk envelope it says "insert the first disk"
    I'm assuming there should be a second?
    Also what info will i need to provide during the install process? like serial number?
    All i have is a black and white sticker that's on the side of the box it came in, but that was so long ago.
    I'm having lots of issues with windows installer not running and many others,
    Windows updates won't work either and i've tried to fix those but a clean reinstall of the os was recommended.
    Now at this point nothing will install because windows installer won't work.
    So i think i wil lhave to attempt a clean install, but i'm not even sure the cd drive will work.
    I have gotten a great run out of this laptop, bit slow for my needs today but over all great product, bought in 2007.
    With a clean os and 4 gigs of ram this thing could last for years more, can't afford a new one right now.
    I have really tried to avoid using a recovery disk in the past, as i've never had any serious issues till now.
    Thanks

    Im wondering why you get such disk together with your notebook why? Because I did not get the recovery disk but I had to create one using the Toshiba Recovery disk creator software
    But my notebook is newer than your A210 this might be the reason why you got such disk
    I created a recovery disk and I needed two DVD disks I think these depends on the image file size
    > Also what info will i need to provide during the install process? like serial number?
    This is not needed because your system was already activated.
    But I recommend to backup your personal data because the recovery disk would format the whole HDD and you would lose the files.
    PS: recommend reading the other threads in the Product recovery forum!

  • T500 - Windows Update no longer works after using factory recovery disks.

    I'm running  Windows 7 32bit.  I needed to restore my T-500 hard drive because of a fatal windows registry error caused by a 3rd party registry cleaner/tuner software... Windows 7 was DOA .   
    I used the factory recovery disks I created after I first fired up the laptop in April this year, all went well, Windows 7 booted up, and I went through the "Starting Widows for the first time" setup dialog, Windows 7 sucessfully activated... also verfifed it on the Microsoft website. 
    Went into control panel to have windows update pull down all of the critical updates released after I got my Thinkpad and I got a pop up saying "windows update cannot currently check for updates because the service is not running. You may need to restart your computer." 
    I checked... the windows update service is running, so is BITS.  Following suggestions from Microsoft support, I have 1)deleted the softwaredistribution folder from C:\windows, 2) run their "fixit tool", 3) renamed the CatRoot2 folder in C:\windows'system32, all to no avail each time I tried to use windows update after each "fix". 
    I decided to check here if anyone here has gone down this path before and ask what fixed it?
    I'm waiting for Microsoft support to reply to my last email informing them the last instructions to rename the CatRoot2 folder and retry windows update failed. They now have a copy of my windowsupdate.log file sent to them.
    How about it... does this situation sound familiar to anyone?
    Thanks.   

    I run into the same problem with fresh installation of W7 Pro on T530 with 1TB samsung disk.
    This solution worked for me:
        Running check for updates will trigger this error message:
    “Windows Update cannot currently check for updates, because the service is not running. You may need to restart your computer.”  
    Solution:
    1.    Go to Administrative Tools/Services, and stop the Windows Update service.
    2.    Then go to the folder c: /Windows/SoftwareDistribution and delete all of the files and folders.
    3.    Then go back to Services and restart the Windows Update service which will recreate all of those folders again.
    4.    Then manually run the Update Service and everything should work.

  • Cannot recover the notebook using the Recovery disk

    Hello.
    I was wanting to restart my Toshiba Laptop, and I inserted the 'Recovery' CD, and pressed F8 and went to the help menu, and when the list came up I clicked on the one that said about restarting my PC and losing all data, and then I clicked on 'Restart' and the computer restarted and the disc was in but it just came back on as normal.
    What do I need to do? I tried all the other options and they all worked as normal.
    What do I need to do? Do I have to press something else?
    Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
    ~Confused~

    To be honest after reading your posting I am more confused then you.
    Can you please tell us which notebook do you have?
    F8 and disc inside the optical disc drive. Sorry but something is wrong there.
    Either you can install Vista again using image saved on HDD (F8 option Repair my computer) or use Toshiba recovery installations media. There is no sense to use both at the same time.
    Please more info needed.

  • Windows update does not work after using System recovery disk
